The number 2 is banned by Bud Selig to honor Derek Jeter.

Derek Jeter is the son Bud Selig never had. In order to honor Jeter beyond what the Steinbrenner Kids and Nike (supplying Micheal Jordan) did yesterday at Yankee Stadium on Derek Jeter Day, commissioner Selig has banned the use of Jeter's uniform number 2. This ban is complete, not just in the wearing of the number on a uniform, except, of course, the Jeter combination logo/patch, which is mandatory in perpetuity and retroactively.
